Common installation problems

Solutions to common issues when installing Anarchy Online, particularly when using the download version:

-Running 'Setup.exe' will give you a message saying to run Install.exe. Simply double-click the 'Install.exe' file in the same folder.

-'Please insert disk 1 that contains the file data2.cab' message when you start the installation. Just browse to the folder where the downloaded files are located and select it. For example, if the files you downloaded are in a folder called 'AOInstall15.7.3_EP0_live_nointro,' browse to that folder and select it when asked for data2.cab.

-If you run Install.exe and a window pops up containing command-line parameters, or if you get the setup for a program other than Anarchy Online (e.g., video drivers), start the installation from a command prompt. Go to Start > Run, type 'cmd' and click 'OK'. Use the 'cd' command to change to the directory containing the Anarchy Online installation files. Type the following and press 'Enter': setup.exe install
